I think Scott said in a previous post that someone would pay for this mishap. Looks like this fiasco bit him in the butt big time.

Here I was wondering today why Tallon was fired, only forgetting that he mis-handled the qualifying offers of their RFAs lol. Too bad that he was fired, but it makes sense since it cost them millions. Now it will be harder to sign both Toews and Kane.

He was moved another position within the org. I was listening to a sportscaster from Chicago this afternoon. He said that this has been in the works for over a year now. The mistakes last week had little to do with Tallon, he's a figurehead who signs the papers, the org just used it as a stepping stone to get Bowman's son in. When Scotty Bowman want's things done, he gets it done.....his way or the highway! Hockey Politics 101

Hawks Fire GM Dale Tallon
http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=442592
By Dan Rosen -
From the time he was named general manager of the Blackhawks in the summer of 2005, Dale Tallon had worked tirelessly to put together a young and talented core of players that are supposed to bring the Stanley Cup back to Chicago.
Now it will be up to his former assistant to see it through.
The Hawks announced Tuesday that Tallon has been reassigned to Senior Advisor, Hockey Operations and replaced in the GM's chair by Stan Bowman, the son of legendary coach Scotty Bowman and an assistant GM for the past two seasons.

Hawks are one my least favourite teams now!!! Fire the coach because they had a rough start. Fire the GM because he messes up the qualifying offers. Should fire the owner because without the GM they wouldn't be the team they are right now!!!

I remember hearing ownership wanted this guy out last December. Should have done it before free agency, rather than waiting til he made a mistake so they could cover it with a 'just' cause.
